Giacomo Brogi (1822 Florence - 1881 ibid.): Bust of Alessandro Morente, Uffizi Gallery, Florence, c. 1880, albumen paper print Technique: albumen paper print, mounted on Cardboard Inscription: Inscribed below, numbered "3223 Firenze Galleria Uffizi". Date: c. 1880 Description: Giacomo BROGI founded a photography studio in Florence in 1860. This was followed by business establishments in Rome and Naples in 1869. In Florence, he competed with the Alinari brothers and with Giorgio Sommer and Giorgio Conrad in Naples. From 1871 he took part in national and international exhibitions, often winning awards. His sons Carlo and Alfredo worked in the shop, which was taken over by Carlo BROGI after BROGI's death in 1881. BROGI emerged as a co-founder of the Photographic Society of Italy and was one of the most important photographers in 19th century Italy. Original photography with a high level of detail. An early testimony of travel photography. Around the middle of the 19th century, more and more tourists from middle-class circles travelled to Italy. At that time, photographs could only be taken with a great deal of time and expensive, unwieldy equipment. This made many tourists all the more grateful for the work of the professional photographer's studios on site to bring back a souvenir from afar for those who stayed at home or to collect as souvenirs. Famous photographers such as Carlo Naya, Giorgio Sommer or the Alinari brothers photographed the most famous sights of their home cities and went on journeys themselves to photograph the most popular destinations of their clients and offer them as albumen prints. Ancient art treasures were also photographed and offered to travellers. The high-quality photographs of sculptures and frescoes continued to make an important contribution to documenting art treasures and making them accessible to scholars from all over Europe, who previously had to rely on tracings or engravings if they could not view the original for themselves.

19th C. Portraits in Gilt Frames - Italy's King & Queen
Est: $1,500 - $2,250
Giacomo Brogi (Italian, 1822-1881). Two pendant royal portraits of Queen Margherita and King Umberto I by Italian photographer, Giacomo Brogi, mounted in magnificent matching gilt frames with crown ornaments topped by globus crucigers, a Christian symbol of authority used on royal regalia since the Middle Ages. The portrait of Queen Margherita has a handwritten inscription to Preston Draper, an ancestor of the artist William Draper, that is signed by Queen Margherita and dated 1899. Both sitters are depicted bust-length and dressed in luxurious attire - the Queen bedecked in lace, fur, gems, and multiple strands of pearls - the King in traditional military attire elaborately decorated with medals. A marvelous pair of royal portraits in gilt frames fit for royalty. Size (Queen sight view): 13.125" L x 9.875" W (33.3 cm x 25.1 cm) Size (King sight view: 14.75" L x 11.25" W (37.5 cm x 28.6 cm) Size (frames): 30.5" L x 17.75" W (77.5 cm x 45.1 cm) Queen Margherita of Savoy (Martherita Maria Teresa Giovanna, 1851-1926) was the Queen of Italy by marriage to King Umberto I (Umberto Rainerio Carlo Emanuele Giovanni Maria Ferdinando Eugenio di Savoia, 1844-1900 - reigned January 9, 1878-July 29, 1900). While one may find a plethora of interesting historical facts about Queen Margherita and King Umberto I, one of the most playful ones has to do with pizza. According to National Geographic, "The origin story began when the queen of Italy visited Naples in 1889. Strolling through the streets of the city centre, Queen Margherita and her husband smelled a delicious aroma wafting from a pizzeria. Intrigued, the couple invited the chef of the establishment, Raffaele Esposito, to the citys Capodimonte Palace to cook the dish for them there. Esposito prepared three different kinds of pizza. One option emulated the colours of the Italian flag: It featured red tomatoes, white mozzarella, and fresh green basil. The following day, Esposito received a letter from Camillo Galli, head of the Services of the Table of the Royal Household, which read: 'Esteemed Signor Raffaele Esposito. I confirm that the three kinds of pizza prepared by you for her Royal Highness the Queen were found to be excellent.' Although Margherita enjoyed all three pizzas, she declared the red, white, and green to be her favourite. Esposito duly named it after her, and a classic Neapolitan specialty was born." About the artist: Giacomo Brogi was a 19th century Italian photographer who established his studio in Corso Tintori, Florence in 1864. He traveled throughout Italy and in 1868 ventured to the Middle East, traveling to Palestine, Egypt, and Syria. Brogi's photographs are in the collections of Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, Musee d'Orsay, Paris; Courtauld Institut of Art, London; Harvard University Museums; Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), among others.

Giacomo Brogi (1822 Florence - 1881 ibid.): Church of Sant Alessandro, view of the choir, Milan, Italy, c. 1880, albumen paper print Technique: albumen paper print, mounted on Cardboard Inscription: Inscribed and numbered "3959." below the photograph. With Brogi blindstamp on the lower left of the photograph. Giacomo BROGI founded a photography studio in Florence in 1860. This was followed by business establishments in Rome and Naples in 1869. In Florence he was in competition with the Alinari brothers as well as with Giorgio Sommer and Giorgio Conrad in Naples. From 1871 he took part in national and international exhibitions, often winning awards. His sons Carlo and Alfredo worked in the shop, which was taken over by Carlo BROGI after BROGI's death in 1881. BROGI was one of the founders of the Italian Photographic Society and one of the most important photographers in 19th century Italy. Date: c. 1880 Description: Original photograph with high sharpness of detail. An early testimony of travel photography. Around the middle of the 19th century, more and more tourists from middle-class circles travelled to Italy. At that time, photographs could only be taken with a great deal of time and expensive, unwieldy equipment. This made many tourists all the more grateful for the work of the professional photographer's studios on site to bring back a souvenir from afar for those who stayed at home or to collect as souvenirs. Famous photographers such as Carlo Naya, Giorgio Sommer or the Alinari brothers photographed the most famous sights of their home cities and went on journeys themselves to photograph the most popular destinations of their clients and offer them as albumen prints. Ancient art treasures were also photographed and offered to travellers. The high-quality photographs of sculptures and frescoes continued to make an important contribution to documenting art treasures and making them accessible to scholars from all over Europe, who previously had to rely on tracings or engravings if they could not view the original for themselves.
